Self Storage facilities use low levels of energy compared to other commercial buildings, and the addition of solar power generation to our buildings, which are heavily insulated with no heating other than to the office, makes our business carbon neutral operationally.
Below are some of the other “green” ways we operate our stores;
· Large array of solar panels on each building
· LED lighting throughout our stores operated by passive infra-red detection
· Recyclable packing boxes
· Our Five Oaks facility was a purpose-built sustainable building surrounded by natural planting with insect-friendly pollinators in the wildflower borders
· Electric vehicle charging points at both sites
· We have a partnership with Evie vans based at our out-of-town store for vehicle sharing and green travel
We are constantly looking at new ways to save energy and operate an environmentally friendly business, at Le Gallais Self Storage it’s not just the storage doors that are “green”.
